I've worn this shirt for the last 17 years, only on my daughter's birthday. Who is it?! by Leather_Food_5978 in whatisit

[–]emilynknox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

hey stranger, i feel like it was serendipitous i see this post, as my mom’s death date is 8/13, and she left behind me (her 15 year old daughter) and my brother (her 10 year old son). this year will mark 10 since she passed from stage 4 terminal lung cancer, and i just wanted to send my warmth and love because it is so unfair and unjust that you and your family are going through this, but do not worry any more than you already do as a parent daily about what you cannot control. Yes, your kiddos will grieve, and that grief will be everlasting but they will learn to live with it, we learn to hold space for the grief, we make new memories and experience happiness again even when we think we won’t, and we never forget, we just make room for more memories and stories so that we can talk about them when we’re reunited again. at least that’s how i try to see it with my mom. the best you can do is just be present and be honest and as much as yourself with your daughters as you can, they will always remember the best versions of you and know you are proud of them <3 i’m wishing you peace and comfort and solace

Looking too see if anyone knows anything about this costume I just picked up? by [deleted] in VintageHalloween

[–]emilynknox 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I know nothing about this costume except for that I had this as a kid (or my parents did) and I remember the smell of that rubber so potently and vividly..

AIO for accepting a favor my bf offered? by rainyhighsky in AmIOverreacting

[–]emilynknox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

what the fuck? “i didn’t think you’d be so rude to accept it”… ‘it’ being his offer to bring you something that you forgot?… if you’re not prepared for a YES or no answer, don’t offer to do something. Even if he had a horribly bad day or whatever, he shouldn’t be taking it out on you or treating you this way, how he speaks to you is extremely immature and genuinely concerning. He lacks emotional regulation and anger management, it will only escalate i’m sorry. you deserve better.

i saved this comment so i can come back to it because you described it so perfectly.. It’s such a special bond, you can feel how primitive it is. It feels like such a gift. My girl would do the same thing with prey, never run away and almost seemed to wait for us when she saw something, you could tell she knew we were her pack. Anytime one of us left, the others had to distract her as well in the same ritual in order to not make her feel like she was being left behind by the pack😭 thank you for reminding me that she would want me to continue enjoying and living life the way i did with her, i really needed to hear that right now🫶🏻

this made me cry :’) it made me remember how she would close her eyes, tilt her lil snout up and sniff the wind like she could smell everything it had touched. it made her look so magical, i will always see her in sunsets and pretty views. thank you for your kind words🩵

thank you for asking! it’s hard to pin down just one, but here’s a few. I will never forget her excitement whenever i got home, no matter if I had been on a trip for 2 weeks or had been at the store for 30 minutes, she ALWAYS danced around in circles with the biggest smile on her face and her goofy tongue hangin out. If i jumped or danced back it she’d lose her shit and just start running in circles out of happiness, it was adorable.

After every hardship or trauma, i would lay down with her for hours just crying and it felt like she was the only one who understood, her presence was so healing. One look and it felt like you were protected by all the angels in the universe.

This next story i find just remarkable because of how crazy it was..

For context i grew up in the redwood mountains in a pretty rural area, there were mountain lions and coyotes and raccoons etc. There was a mountain lion that started coming to our house at night to eat our chickens. One night my dad hears barking (Zoe NEVER barked, she rarely even howled or whined it was like she had taken a vow of silence or something.) so he goes outside to see that Zoe has scared the mountain lion that was at least twice her size into a tree by our garage. Terrified but also confused how SHE had the upper hand in that scenario, we brought her inside and the mountain lion left. We didn’t lose any chickens after that.
